High power trends in the diesel engines due to engine downsizing do not provide noise attenuation that can be satisfied with the performance of the existing silencer on account of high frequency increases in the exhaust noise. This study improves the attenuation performance of the exhaust silencer of the diesel engine and suggests silencer structure that performs best attenuation performance, especially at the high frequency range in the exhaust noise. It proposes dual silencer structure with an average attenuation performance of 6.4 dB and a maximum of 10.7 dB in the high frequency range (over 500 Hz), and analyzes its characteristics compared with the existing silencer. The performance analysis is performed according to 'Measurements on silencers in situation-ISO 11820:1996 Acoustics' and describes the results of comparative analysis with the existing silencer.

Recent seismic surveys have shown that the presence of methane hydrate (MH) in sediments has significant influence on seismic attenuation. I have used vertical seismic profile (VSP) data from a Nankai Trough exploratory well, offshore Tokai in central Japan, to estimate compressional attenuation in MH-bearing sediments at seismic frequencies of 30-110 Hz. The use of two different measurement methods (spectral ratio and centroid frequency shift methods) provides an opportunity to validate the attenuation measurements. The sensitivity of attenuation analyses to different depth intervals, borehole irregularities, and different frequency ranges was also examined to validate the stability of attenuation estimation. I found no significant compressional attenuation in MH-bearing sediments at seismic frequencies. Macroscopically, the peaks of highest attenuation in the seismic frequency range correspond to low-saturation gas zones. In contrast, high compressional attenuation zones in the sonic frequency range (10-20 kHz) are associated with the presence of methane hydrates at the same well locations. Thus, this study demonstrated the frequency-dependence of attenuation in MH-bearing sediments; MH-bearing sediments cause attenuation in the sonic frequency range rather than the seismic frequency range As a possible reason why seismic frequencies in the 30-110 Hz range were not affected in MH-bearing sediments, I point out the effect of thin layering of MH-bearing zones.

The attenuation study of Lg waves is very important in the southeast Korea because the Yangsan fault, believed to be active faults, lied in the industrialized region of the area. By applying the reversed two-station method for the vertical component of the velocity seismogram, we first estimated the Lg attenuation coefficient in this area: $${＼gamma}=(0.009±0.0005)＼;f^{0.06+0.03}$$ between 0.87 and 10 Hz. The ${Q_{Lg}}^{-1}$ values converted from ${＼gamma}$ prove to be higher than those of S-waves, and show the highest values in the world for the high frequency part around 10 Hz. This high attenuation of Lg may be related to a block of Lg propagation near the East Sea and/or an undulately thinning crust of the studied area.

This paper suggests the 2 D.O.F mathematical model of the High Frequency Vibro-Hammer (HFVH), introduces an experimental method for measuring of the attenuation of piling vibration and proves what experiments are coincident with the equation of wave propagation. As vibratory installation of piles and casings has many economic merits in the construction field, most of all contractors prefer to vibratory pile driving method than the other. Compared to impact pile driving, vibratory installation has the advantage of reducing vibration or noise pollution and can drive piles under high frequency. Experiments serve estimations of capabilities and limitations of the HFVH's excitation force and finding of sensitivity for important soil resistance parameters. Also, we discuss the HFVH that can drive with three kinds of input waves (triangular, sine and square wave) and propose the design of parameters to improve actuating performance in it.

This paper is to investigate how partial discharge pulse signal can flow in 6.6㎸ motor stator windings. Pulse propagation is experimentally analyzed in stator windings using a variety of frequency-domain techniques. The experiments were performed on two stator windings in the laboratory. Spectrum analyzer(9KHz to 3㎓) with tracking generator(100kHz to 3㎓) was used. Sweep time of the tracking generator was looms. The frequency spectrum of the response signal was detected by active FET probe(1㎓). The active FET probe has a flat amplitude response up to 1㎓ without high frequency attenuation. The stator winding acts as a low-pass filter below 600KHz, the high-frequency components being highly declined. The resonance peaks show about 1.1MHz and 2MHz in low frequency of No. 1 and No. 2 stator windings, respectively. This low-frequency range indicates that attenuation is low. The peaks of partial discharge magnitude show about 900MHz, 1.6MHz in No. 1 stator winding and about 800KHz, 1.4MHz in No. 2 stator winding.

Elastic wave propagation in discrete random medium is studied to evaluate the effects of particle resonance on dispersion and attenuation of composite materials containing spherical inclusions. The frequency-dependent wave speed and attenuation coefficient can be obtained from proposed self-consistent method. It can be observed that the abrupt increase of effective wave speed and the concurrent peak of attenuation at low frequency is due to the lowest resonance of particles, whereas those in high frequency region are due to higher ones. The lowest resonance is mainly caused by the density mismatch and higher resonances by the stiffness mismatch between matrix and particles. The dispersion and attenuation of elastic waves in particulate composites are affected by the lowest resonance much than by higher ones.

Biot's theory and a modified Biot-Attenborough (MBA) model are applied to predict the dependences of acoustic characteristics on frequency and porosity in cancellous bone. The phase velocity and the attenuation coefficient predicted by both theories are compared with previous in vitro experimental measurements in terms of the mixed, the fast, and the slow waves. Biot's theory successfully predicts the dependences of phase velocity on frequency and porosity in cancellous bone, whereas a significant discrepancy is observed between predicted and measured attenuation coefficients. The MBA model is consistent with reported measurements for both dependences of phase velocity and attenuation coefficient on frequency and porosity. Based on the theoretical predictions from the MBA model, it is suggested that the attenuation coefficient of the mixed wave is dominated by the fast wave in the low-porosity region while it is dominated by the slow wave in the high-porosity region. This provides a qualitative explanation for the nonlinear relationship of attenuation of the mixed wave with porosity in cancellous bone.

This paper presents the intra capacitance modeling according to the winding method and section bobbin for CM choke capable of the EMI attenuation of broad bands from lower frequency bands to higher frequency bands and high frequency type common-mode choke capable of the EMI attenuation of high frequency band used in the EMI Block of LED-TV SMPS. In case of high frequency type CM choke, it can be explained the parasitic capacitance of A type and section bobbin type winding methods among them is much smaller than the other. The first resonant frequency of the proposed CM choke tends to increase as the parasitic capacitance becomes small and its impedance characteristics also show improved performance as the first resonant frequency increases. In the future, the CM chokes of high frequency type show it can be practically used in not only LED/LCD-TV SMPS but also several applications such as LED Lighting, Adapter and so on.
